+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ dh_installmodules [debhelper options] [-n]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+dh_installmodules is a debhelper program that is responsible for
+registering kernel modules with modutils.
+
+Files named debian/package.modules will be installed as
+etc/modutils/package in the package build directory.
+
+Then postinst and postrm commands are automatically generated to register
+the modules when the package is installed. See L<dh_installdeb(1)> for an
+explanation of how this works. Note that this will be done for any
+package this program acts on which has either the above-mentioned file, or
+has .o files in /lib/modules.

+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+Note that this command is not idempotent. "dh_clean -k" should be called
+between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
+instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
